Real life: Born in Oklahoma, Chaske, 34, is a Native American Indian or First Nation descendant of Lakota (Sioux) Nation.

New Moon quote: "Bella, my name is Sam Uley. Charlie sent me to look for you."

Chaske quote: "I’ve been eating six meals a day: fish, chicken, vegetables and protein shakes," Chaske told OK! of his movie fitness regime. “It’ll be nice to be a couch potato again.”

Kiowa Gordon: Embry Call

Werewolf: Embry is one of Jacob's best friends, and turns into a wolf just before Jacob does. In wolf form, he's gray with dark spots.

Real life: Kiowa, 19,  is a Native American Indian or First Nation Descendant of the Hualapai Nation. Stephenie Meyer herself scouted him out for the role.

New Moon quote: "Well, the wolf's out of the bag now."

Real life: Alex, 24, is a Native American Indian or First Nation descendant of the Purepecha (Tarasco) Nation. He and wife Kim are new parents to baby Somack.

Alex quote: "He smells like roses!" Alex once said of Robert Pattinson. "The first time I met him I was like, 'Dude, you smell fantastic!' "

Bronson Pelletier: Jared

Werewolf: Jared is the first to turn wolf, after Sam. He's got medium brown fur, and like the others, is constantly hungry.

Real life: Bronson, 23, is a Plains Cree native and is originally from Askinootow First Nation.

New Moon quote: "Excellent. We've got bait."

Bronson quote: “The vampires have a very serious demeanor so when they’re on set they’re chilled, serious, when the wolves get on set that is when the party starts."
